Cultural Beat Update Week 3

This article in the Daily Evergreen focused on the study abroad fair on campus last week. The article touched on an issue I would like to write more about: it said there has not been an increase or decrease in study abroad students from WSU, rather the number is exactly the same as the previous year. Also, one source was a study abroad student from Germany and he talked about the differences between U.S. compared to German universities which I found to be interesting.

This article is from The Oregonian. The story is a feature on Yvonne Curtis, a superintendent from Washington County. This article pertains to my beat because the story focuses on the fact that Curtis is the only woman and only Latino superintendent (out of seven) in the county, and the article discusses her Mexican family history.
